Cryogenic source of atomic tritium for neutrino-mass measurements and precision spectroscopy
Aleksei Semakin, Janne Ahokas, Tom Kiilerich +9
We propose a concept for a cryogenic source of atomic tritium at sub-Kelvin temperatures and energies suitable for magnetic trapping. The source is based on the dissociation of sol…
Sterile-neutrino search based on 259 days of KATRIN data
Himal Acharya, Max Aker, Dominic Batzler +132
Neutrinos are the most abundant fundamental matter particles in the Universe and play a crucial role in particle physics and cosmology. Neutrino oscillation, discovered about 25 ye…
Measurement of the inhomogeneity of the KATRIN tritium source electric potential by high-resolution spectroscopy of conversion electrons from Kr
H. Acharya, M. Aker, D. Batzler +130
Precision spectroscopy of the electron spectrum of the tritium -decay near the kinematic endpoint is a direct method to determine the effective electron antineutrino mass. The…
First constraints on general neutrino interactions based on KATRIN data
M. Aker, D. Batzler, A. Beglarian +130
The precision measurement of the tritium -decay spectrum performed by the KATRIN experiment provides a unique way to search for general neutrino interactions (GNI). All theoret…
